Today is the FINAL day to save HALF off my designs in fleece and premium fabrics! I'll link in the comments. I highly recommend the PREMIUM fabric as it's super lightweight, and always always go up a size.

The downside no one talks about when finding hand painted textured digital backgrounds....

They're too versatile and you can easily be sucked into the rabbit hole of "what if we try this pairing? What if? What if?" Hours later you've got 200 new backgrounds. And really, who needs that headache (she says sarcastically)?

Here is the "sizing cheat sheet" from yesterday's Corel Painter 2017 webinar. I've painted and printed fairly large ("normal" size is 30") for over 14 years from professional and custom printers. Paint what your computer can handle. The more pixels, the better. Happy painting!
